Haha.....thanks MJ...but do you know what happens to people when they mess with somene from 'our' area??? hehehe....I'd hush if I were you!!!

MJ...That's perfectly cool.......I didn't say it wouldn't suit someone else. I just said that it sucked.........to me!! haha

It's obvious that we all don't like the same stuff. Life would be hellaboring if we did......

SEYHEY....yep, Vanden Plas kicks some might ass!! And so does that Burning Rain you've recently jammed to.....

Slammin' Gladys....was....HORRIBLE. I still remember gettin' that cassette and bringin' it home hopin' it would rock. God.....did it suck. That was one of those early 90's releases that you hoped was good 80's styled hard rock....but disappointed. Listened to it one time......and that was enough.....

To stay on topic......

Today, I had Amsterdam ~ 's/t' .....damn good Indie.....

Hahaha.....

Spinnin' in my player, as of late........

Nueropa "Beyond Hear and Now"

Merge "Lost Heroes"

Camouflage "Sensor"

B!Machine "Aftermath"

Just kiddin'.........NOT like I ever do anything to get into trouble over anyway!!!

 

HOLD ON TO The Night - Richard Marx

Oh Lord.............did you just quote a Richard Marx tune??!!!! Hahahaha

MJ sent me that Kingofthehill unreleased album....so I listened to THAT this a.m....

Not bad....

Funny how so many bands have those 'unreleased' albums sitting in some corporate vault somewhere.....

I've heard Tora Tora has one....but I've yet to hear it. THAT would be cool!!

Hmmm....nothing here at the office, today. But....on the way in I jammed to Roxy Blue and Steelheart's self-titled release!

The trek home will probably have me puttin' in CTRL ~ "Lose the Image"

Come TAKE ME Now - Saigon Kick

(bossy lil bit*h, now ain't I??? )

"Take Me to the Top" *cough...........cough*

"Walk Away" is one of my favorite Dokken tunes.....it scares me that he's covering this song. Do I really want to hear this??

To stay on topic.....

On the way to the office this a.m. I was listening to:

CTRL ~ "Lose the Image" excellent band......

The funny thing I find is that it's actually difficult NOT to sound like someone nowadays. The whole...'they're a Led Zep rip off' is a cop out.....maybe you don't like them, but to use that as the excuse is poor.....

and that is just my opinion......LOL

Here's the discography of the band....

the "Bad Image" album was horrible......the rest are pretty cool.

http://www.lennywolf.com/disco.html

Yesterday decided to pick up the following:

Camouflage "Sensor"

Cosmicity "The Binary Language of Love"

De/Vision "Devolution"

Echo Image "Compuphonic"

I Synthesist "Avalanche"

Iris "Disconnect"

Merge "Lost Heroes"

Neuropa "Beyond Here and Now"

MJ...you mean you're hearing that Warrant album for the first time??!!! *shakes head* That's a great cd!! April 2031 is one of my favorites on that one......

Spinnin' in my cd player.......

This a.m. it was Assemblage23 "Defiance".....love this one....

Are there any Kingdom Come fans here? Right now, I've got the Master Seven CD turned up so loud that the walls are skakin! Kingdom Come rocks!

Haha....yeah, my walls were 'skakin' to Assemblage23 last night!!

To stay on topic....I found that the Kingdom Come stuff was pretty good! So what if they sounded like Led Zeppelin....big fuckin' deal. That can almost be said about a ton of bands....so what....

The only cd I didn't like from them was a really lightweight one. Can't remember which one it was because I listened to it at a store and didn't buy it because it sucked so bad. But Master Seven was damn good!!

Yep...that Inside Out is a great, GREAT Indie!! Love all the tunes on that one!

On the way in to the office today....played...

Assemblage23 ~ "Defiance" *kickass stuff!!*

Let's see...pulled out some artillery for this Saturday night.....

Paradise ~ "Priime Cut"

AWOL ~ "On the Edge"

Hard Knox ~ "Psycho's R Us"

Lacuna Coil ~ "Comalies"

Paradise Lost ~ "Symbol of Life"

JLP,

 

as I can see that you like goth rock, have you ever tried Concrete Blonde (not sure if it can be described as goth rock, but it's really good!) or Two Witches (Finland's best goth band!)? I do like also some Spandau Ballet and Depeche Mode..

Timo...

I've heard some Concrete Blonde stuff....and yes, it's a bit different. Atmospheric...a bit moody, perhaps...but not Goth. And to be honest, I've never really heard more than what was played by Mtv back in the day when it was on.

The Finnish band you mention, Two Witches, however...I would be VERY interested in! How can I check their stuff out? Buy it?

Thanks!!

Yep...

I corresponded with the band back in like '94 and got their cd directly from them. It's some good stuff....and the production is damn good too!!

Hey....Whip...didn't know you were from that neck 'o the woods. Do you know of a band from NC called 'Buster Rogue'??? I've been looking for their stuff for about 10 years now with no luck.....

Do you know of them??

Hmmm....'bought' some cool discs....

Brand New Idol ~ "Still Beautiful...Falling Apart"

CTRL~ "Lose the Image"

Alphaville's ~ "Afternoons in Utopia"

Clan of Xymox ~ "Farewell"

Whip...JTrain is a VASTLY overlooked band!!! They freaking rock!!!!!!!! A great INDIE!!!!

To stay on topic.....playing in my player today was. Still on a synth kick...

Camouflage ~ "The Great Commandment"

Still on a synth kick....

Listening to: London After Midnight ~ "Psychomagnet"

Listened to an awesome new Synth band this morning on the way in to the office....they are called "CTRL"...excellent stuff!!!

XYMOX ~ "Goodbye"..........one helluva disc......

"Don't fuck with the wongs.........." from The Wanderers

"Mutha trucka, mutha fucka....mutha chuck a spear up yo ass!!!" from The Wanderers

"RIFFS.............yeah, RIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!!!" from the Warriors
